Although it may seem that the services sector of the economy will be less affected by the energy transition than industry or energy companies, there is nonetheless much at stake, and also real opportunities for development. Since its inception Carbone 4 has worked with many service providers to identify fundamental issues related to energy and climate.

Carbone 4 works with many media outlets to bolster understanding of the stakes and to define indicators to be monitored in the context of communication on the energy transition and efforts to combat climate change.
